When trousers need a knit
Trousers can be cut from more than one construction. This note is only about starting with a knit.
Why start here
For trousers, the brief needs crease or soft break behaviour as designed. A useful hand note is stable structure.
A knit is the right first filter when good recovery matters for the trouser.
When to switch
If the trouser needs the other construction, start a separate marketplace search. Mixing knit and the alternative in one grid makes GSM meaningless.
Questions
- Is a knit required for trousers?
- No. It is a starting constraint. crease or soft break behaviour as designed can still rule it out.
